hrtimer: Use the mask to clear TIF_HRTIMER_REARM from the exit work

hrtimer_rearm_deferred_user_irq() removes the rearm bit from the local
copy of the TIF work with:

	*tif_work &= ~TIF_HRTIMER_REARM;

TIF_HRTIMER_REARM is the bit number (12), not the mask. That clears
TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL (bit 2) and TIF_MEMDIE (bit 3) from the copy and
leaves bit 12 set.

So the function never returns true, and the copy handed to
exit_to_user_mode_loop() lacks TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL. If that was the only
work for the loop, the task returns to user space with the task work
still pending. hrtimer_interrupt() sets TIF_HRTIMER_REARM every time,
so the next tick repeats that. Task work queued with TWA_SIGNAL from a
hrtimer callback stays pending until the task does a syscall, takes an
interrupt without deferred rearm or has to reschedule.

A task which polls the io_uring completion ring in user space sees a
timeout completion after 30ms (median) instead of 70us. 2 CPU QEMU
guest, HZ=1000.

Use the mask.
